In a Skirt – Sometimes. Art of the 1990s

At last the history of Czech visual arts can be told without
male artists. The exhibition presents the work of female artists
who came to the fore in the 1990s. Symptomatically, the majority of
these female artist do not use the technique of painting. Their
works reveal two clearly dominant tendencies: either a conceptual
work with an object or installation (new sculpture of sorts) or a
work with different types of a technological image (digital and
traditional black-and-white photography, video projection). Both
tendencies are typified by the application of new materials, often
taken directly from ordinary life and the exploration of themes
linked with social structures, the everyday and a reflection of
one's own identity. Visitors will encounter works by Milena
Dopitová, Veronika Bromová, Markéta Othová, Kateřina Vincourová,
Lenka Klodová and Kateřina Šedá.

The exhibition and the publication of the catalogue were
supported by the State Culture Fund of the Czech Republic and the
South Moravian Region. It is a collaboration with the City Gallery
Prague.
